32、CONFERENCE 202426-29 August 2024Lessons Learnt?Pricing:Pools should not implement full risk-based pricing,since this causes affordability challenges if risk is unevenly distributed.A balancing act is needed to reflect risk whilst ensuring there is enough pooling.Flat premiums/fixed premium rates are
33、 also not desirable,since they provide no incentives for high-risk insureds to implement risk mitigation measures(e.g.TREIF).Indexation:If cover is capped at a$amount,there needs to be a process for increasing the cap over time.RI:Over-dependence on reinsurers should be avoided to lessen sensitivity
34、 to market cycle,but some RI may be useful to dampen volatility.Claims handling:It is best to utilise the expertise and capabilities of private insurers where possible(e.g.NZ).Role in Insurance Penetration:The presence of pools can play a critical role in enhancing this;vital in the context of incre

36、g cover to less-developed insurance markets.The Future What role should pools play?In todays landscape,pools are an important tool in ensuring that insurance meets the needs of society.The fact that pools exist is a function of the rising levels of economic losses resulting from natural catastrophes
37、.In de-tariffed markets,unless the insurance industry reaches general agreement to deploy some level of cross-subsidization,pools are necessary to avoid unaffordable insurance for high-risk customers.Successful pools require a high level of collaboration between the public and private sector.Pools s
38、hould also prioritise research,investment and pricing strategies which mitigate natural hazards and encourage sustainable building practices.Overall,they are both a symptom of the failures of the insurance industry and an example of healthy public/private collaboration.SINGAPORE ACTUARIAL CONFERENCE
